    I've had Bamford for a good long while now. Stick, twist?

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I'd like to believe that he will, on average, over the season, do more good than harm especially at his price point. Would love to know how other holders are thinking. There, that's better than my first go.

      Leeds fixtures turn green in a couple of GWs, I'd keep.

        Thinking same but looking for ideas 😉 - thanks

      I'm looking to bring him in soon

        Holding onto him. Antonio or Watkins would have been my potential moves if I were on a WC but fitness and lack of Barkley are putting me off them respectively.

    Advice on this wildcard team please

    McCarthy Steer

    KWP, Chillwell, Dias/Cancelo, Neco Williams, Justin

    Son, Bruno, De Bruyne, Jota, bissouma

    DCL, Kane, Wilson

    Option A) Watkins instead of Wilson (will allow me to swap KDB for Salah more easily)
    Option B) Vardy instead of Kane but keep Wilson

    Tia

    1. Slitherene
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Kwp to Targett
      Kane to Vardy

    2. CONNERS
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Looks good overall.

      Villa attack being the obvious omission. I'd also personally take a punt on Vardy for the next few and leave money ITB to get Kane back.

      I also quite fancy Dallas as a long term cheap option. Can see him getting some attacking returns when Leeds' fixtures swing in a couple of weeks.

      I still have my wild card and would be very unsure what team to pick this week. Are City going to put teams to the sword again? Are Spurs and Chelsea's run of form going to continue as they play fewer teams in bottom six? Are Utd assets reliable? It may be easier to tell in a week or two, so I am hanging onto mine. Have you any money left? I'd definitely prefer Vardy this next few games over Kane as has better fixtures, and you have Son. Good luck!

    4. Nay08

      A. but with vardy. vardy fixtures look too good to ignore. later you can upgrade him to kane, assuming you have the fund bcs you choose kane in the first place.

  3. ivantys
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Kane to Vardy not worth -4 if I'm not gonna captain Vardy right?

    1. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Literally just got back here after doing Kane to Vardy, that fixture v Fulham has to be a bit mouth-watering and especially so after being flat v Liverpool. He's my (c) this week.

      1. ivantys
        • 3 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I really feel like doing son to salah for free since lamptey's out, but vardy always scores against the promoted teams.

  4. Shark Team
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    I'm thinking seriously of doing the Jrod to Jota move today before the deadline.
    I don't know why but I believe this Brighton away game can be bread and butter for Jota's counter attacking instincts.
    Do you think I should do it?

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Jota is a good pick.

      So is Rodriguez with a career record of scoring every 1 in 3 games or so.

      1. TOLV TUMS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Are we super sure Jota is nailed on? Feels like there's still a little flux there. LIV supporter, full disclosure.

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years

          I'm not super sure of anything in lockdown football

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 9 Years

            Well said:)

      2. AC/DC AFC
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Ok, a league goal every 3.25 games.

        Plays in in average just under 24 league games a season, over 13 years so far.

  5. MiguelAngel

    1FT, WC available.
    Concerned by the lack of City, Pool, and Vardy, or am I overthinking it?

    A) WC
    B) Kane > Vardy (0.1 short of Werner to Vardy)
    C) Something else?

    Current team:
    McCarthy 4.0
    Zouma KWP Justin Ayling Lamptey
    Bruno Ziyech Son Grealish McCarthy
    Kane Werner DCL

    Worth WC to:

    McCarthy 4.0
    Cancelo Masuaku KWP Justin Kilman
    KDB Salah Bruno Grealish 4.5
    Vardy DCL Brewster

    1. Tambling5
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Are you planning 442? With two higher priced forwards it will be difficult to make single transfers if someone injured with only six playing attack/mids. Would prefer a team structure with DCL or Vardy and two at price of Bamford Wilson etc myself.

    2. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Not sure about the WC necessity factor but the alternate team looks good. Are people considering Brewster as a viable starter? Have to admit that I haven't been paying a great deal of attention but he seems to be popping up a bit more lately

  6. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Would you be tempted to play Neco Williams over Coufal? Don't think Neco will come on at all if he's benched so it might be worth a punt.

    Best Captain for GW10:
    A. Vardy vs poor fulham defence
    B. KDB vs burnley (with Pope 25% chance of playing)

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Is Vardy away?

      If not KDB got to return big soon.

      1. TOLV TUMS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Or at least return at some level.

    2. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

    3. TOLV TUMS
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A for me

    4. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

    5. Nay08
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      since Pope is the one that made me hesitant to put c on kdb, I choose B.

  8. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Which of these do you prefer for GW11?
    A) Salah vs WOL(H)
    B) Bruno vs WHU(A)

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Wolves are good in defence and West Ham can give Man United a good game.

      1. TOLV TUMS
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        I'm also expecting a solid show from WHU v Manyoo - history and form point to that, at least a little

        1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          So you would lean towards Salah as well?

    2. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

    3. NABIL - FPL otai
      • 11 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

      That's why I'm going to sell Bruno this week, for KDB

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Mental.. Bruno is far better away from home and will make a mockery of the Saints high line

        1. NABIL - FPL otai
          • 11 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          That high line was nowhere to be found last week.

          Thinking soton have learnt their lesson

          1. IRBOX ⚽
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 4 months ago

            Ralph is stubborn as they come.. will be exposed due to their mental press.. Saints Leeds and Brighton have the most aggressive press in the league and are being found out defensively

  9. KUN+10
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Wtf happened to Digne...gdm it

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Ankle injury...

      1. KUN+10
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        Do you know how long he is out for?

        1. TorresMagic™

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Too long, just sell.

  10. NABIL - FPL otai
    • 11 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Play Dallas (eve) or Kilman (ars)?

    1. ⚔★Vibudh★⚔
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Tricky one, Kilman imo but only just

    2. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Arsenal haven’t scored an open play goal since GW5 (mental I know) and Kilman registered 3 headed attempts in the box against the Saints so I would swing towards him. Granted, Dallas is more attacking - however I see Everton putting 2 or 3 past Leeds

      1. NABIL - FPL otai
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 4 months ago

        So Kilman edges it eh

        1. IRBOX ⚽
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 4 months ago

          Indeed

    3. KDB4PREZ
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      Kilman for me

    Hi guys! 3.8m ITB 1FT
    Really want to do Zaha > KDB, but need 0.6m more

    Nyland-McCarthy
    Mitchel-Chilwell-Justin-Cancelo-Cresswell
    Grealish-Bissouma-Salah-Zaha*-Son
    Mitrovic-Adams-Werner

    A) Zaha > Bruno
    B) Son > KDB
    C) Zaha > Jota + ?
    C) A/B + Mitrovic > Watkins (-4)
    D) Other suggestions?

    1. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      A

    2. KDB4PREZ
      • 4 Years

      A easily

  12. ballstoyede
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Hey everyone!

    McCarthy
    KWP Chilwell Justin
    Podence Bruno Rodríguez Son
    DCL Kane Bamford

    Button Bissouma Mitchell Trent

    1FT & 3.0M ITB

    A. Son + Trent -> KDB + Cancelo
    B. Rodríguez + Trent -> KDB + Cancelo
    C. Trent -> Cancelo

    Inclined towards A, leaves me with 2.5M to move from Bruno to Salah in the next GW. Sets up nicely for the upcoming weeks.

    C obviously avoids the hit this GW but might just be delaying it until the next one (?)

    B. Everton have a couple decent fixtures and want to give Rodríguez a last run before moving to Grealish/Ziyech.

    Thoughts?

    Cheers!

    1. mlm

      Everton without digne and coleman would be a big issue

    2. KDB4PREZ
      • 4 Years

      I like A esp as get salah money also

    3. WE GO FOR IT

      C. Avoids the hit and lets you see how Son and James do and which of them do you want to keep. Also, lets you see how KdB and City do.

      1. ballstoyede
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 5 Years

        Thanks guys.

        Going with C until a last minute panic move to bring in KDB.

  13. WE GO FOR IT
    • 8 Years

    Sell one for Cancelo?

    A. Coufal
    B. Konsa
    C. KWP

    Forgot to transfer out Maupay before the price drop. Losing 0.2 on a player who never returned you points is one of FPL’s worst feelings. Thanks Maupay, now **** off.

    1. Saka_me_sideways
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      I’m with you on that one, got him in at gw5 and he’s done sweet FA!
      Probably gonna stick with him till after the Fulham game at least now he has dropped... got more pressing matters.

  15. KDB4PREZ

    Any help/advice appreciated

    Martinez
    Chillwell Semedo Cancelo
    Bruno Rashford Son Grealish Ziyech
    Kane Bamford

    A) Kane>Vardy(C)
    B) Take hit/hits and get KDB/Salah

    Martinez (Button)
    Cancelo Kilman Chilwell (Mitchell, Lamptey)
    Fernandes Son JRod Foden (Bissouma)
    Werner Kane DCL

    Worth a 8pt hit to go:

    Werner + Son + Foden --> Bamford + Salah + Ziyech

    Open to other suggestions. Any help would be great.

    Cheers

    Better for long term?
    A)Lamptey-Coufal (rotating) +Son
    B)R.James (play every gw) + Son
    C)Chilwell + Lamptey(rotating) + Jota
    *I want 2 starters

  18. karljkadak
    • 4 Years
    3 years, 4 months ago

    Martinez, McCarthy
    Robertson, Dallas, KWP, Semedo, Sakho
    Jota, Fernandes, Son, Ziyech, Barkley
    DCL, Kane, Brewster
    1FT, 0,2ITB

    Needs tweaking but I'm out of ideas.
    Brewster and SHU have been apalling, but can't get anyone with -4.
    Sakho to Konsa feels right considering fixtures and Sakho not playing..
    Feel that DCL's form is dropping and could free some cash if I'd get Bamford/Wilson.

    1. karljkadak
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 4 months ago

      sorry, meant that can't get anyone in for Brewster WITHOUT taking a hit.

  19. The VAR Team

    Is it crazy to take a hit toget in Salah for Son, if i cap him over Fernandes?
